Hope the shear pin works if it has too, that could really be a circular mess.

What kind of round baler do you think that is? What kind of weight/hp requirements would it have?

From what I can see and read this is made by Wolagri and is the Columbia R 500 Mini baler. Don't list any hp requirements that I can see.

Website for the baler

Another source of smaller hay equipment is Star Mini Hay Equipment from Agriquip. The Mini Roll Balers come in both Net and Twine models. They occasionally have used ones for sale on this web site. These units require 18-30 PTO hp, weigh 780 pounds, and make 20" by 28" round bales.

I always read/was told that CUTs were too small to bale hay. Now I know different....
I added these sites to my favorites for future budgeting consideration....
Thanks, y'all!

The foolish man will look at the picture and voice his opinion that the tractor is much too large for the baler....downsize the tractor.

The much wiser man (who of course is a TBN member) will look at the picture and voice his opinion that the tractor is the perfect size, but it needs a larger baler.....right? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
